Life Lately....a little catch up!

Life has been busy busy and thus this little blog has been put on the back burner, but thats ok...I have been enjoying all the time with these growing girlies. Well, almost all the time! haha. Steve has been working lots and lots of hours lately...which has majorly upped my work load! Friday was actually the first day I have left the kids for a single minute in over a month!!!! Mama was overdue...and majorly needed the recharge. So after some lunch and shopping with my mama, I feel like a new woman.

So! What have we been up to around here! Although, the days seem to all be running into each other and often times feels like we do the same things all the time, looking through my camera roll shows me...in fact...a lot has been going on in this family of ours.

Lets do this list style...

1) Brynn got a little hair cut! I swore I would never ever cut her hair!!! But here we are three years later and never having a trim she was in desperate need of some evening out of those first baby hairs! And I mean the teeniest tiniest of trims. I am not a hair stylist by any means but for some reason I have always cut peoples hair! I cut my husbands hair every week, my best friends hair many of times....I even cut our dogs hair. Sooo, I decided to be the one to give Brynn her first little trim! She was actually quite excited about it and was super cute and still for the whole ordeal and even let me blow it out afterwards :)

2) It is hotter than hot here in sunny south Florida so we have been doing all things to keep cool! Swimming in our pool, the splash pad...the water hose..downing watermelon, you name it!

It totally passes the time and makes for the best afternoon naps!

3) We celebrated Memorial Day. The girls dressed in their patriotic best of course. We did a flag craft and let Brynn watch some videos to learn about the holiday. Then we had friends and family over for a bbq.

4) Jolie! Where do I even start with this wild woman! She turns 10 months next week and so I will be doing her monthly update then, but this little lady is doing all the things. Walking along furniture, walking with the walkers and push toys, crawling up the furniture and officially done with purees and eating all the big people food she can get her grubby hands on.

5) Church...we have started back going to church and it makes my heart oh so happy! Steve and I used to go to church every single weekend when dating and first married. It wasn't until after Brynn that we stopped going. I am totally a nervous nellie when it comes to leaving my children with other people....especiallyyyyy people I do not know. These girls are always with me and their only babysitter is my mama. We decided to change churches to a smaller more family oriented one where we have several friends who trust the nursery and Sunday school. After lots of prayer I took the leap and after three weeks things are going really well. We love it, Brynn lovessss the Sunday school...and it has made me feel complete again. Not to mention, my mama heart could explode seeing Brynn go to her little class and learn about Jesus with her friends.

Well, thats that. Lots of this and that. Hopefully I can get my act together over here and find some energy during nap time or after these kids are in bed to get more religious about my blogging over here.
